Change text size, theme and colors

Step 1. In the Settings tab, tap Theme

Tap Settings at the right end of the tab bar, then tap Theme, the row with the sun icon. The right side of the row shows the name of the color you're using. At first it's Peach Fuzz.

A sheet slides up with color, then appearance, then text size, from top to bottom. It's the same sheet whether you open it in Calendar mode or Planner mode.

Step 2. Tap an accent color, then choose the appearance

There are six circles at the top. Tap one and it gets a white check, and the app's accent color, used for buttons, highlights and the active tab, changes right away. The circles have no labels. From left to right, they're Peach Fuzz, Mocha Mousse, Living Coral, Viva Magenta, Very Peri and Indigo.

Below them, choose the screen appearance from three options.

• Auto — follows your phone's light or dark setting. This one is selected at first.
• Light — always light, whatever your phone is set to.
• Dark — always dark, whatever your phone is set to.

Step 3. Tap the size you want in Text size

The Text size section is below the color and appearance options. Tap Small, Default, Large or Extra large, and all the text in the app changes to that size right away. At first it's Default.

Your phone's own text size setting applies too. If you've already made your phone's text larger, the two settings add up and the text gets bigger still. To keep screens from breaking, though, body text never goes above about 1.3 times the default size.

Step 4. In the Calendar sheet (the Planner sheet in Planner mode), choose Items per day

This sets how many event rows a single day shows on the monthly calendar. It isn't in the Theme sheet but in the Calendar sheet in the Settings list. Scroll down and you'll find Items per day below Week starts on. In Planner mode, the same option is in the Planner sheet.

Choose from Auto, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Auto shows as many rows as fit the height of the day. Events that don't fit are shown as a count of what's left, like +3.

If you choose a number larger than fits, each week of the calendar gets taller to match. In return, fewer weeks fit on one screen, so you'll scroll up and down more. Whichever sheet you change it in, it applies to the monthly calendar in both Calendar and Planner.

Step 5. In Our space, tap Change my color and pick a color

In the Settings tab, open Our space and the member list is at the top. The round dot next to each name is that person's color. Tap Change my color on the right of your row, and two rows of color circles open right below it. Tap one of the twenty and it changes right away. There's no save button.

The Shared row at the bottom of the list is the color for ‘together’ events that have no single owner. Tap Change color on the right and pick a color the same way. At first it's purple. This color is saved to the space, not to this phone, so it looks the same on both people's screens.
